Nature Lovers Will Adore San Quintin, Baja California!

If you love nature, you will love the San Quintin area in Baja California. We spent a week hiking volcanos at Punta Mazo natural reserve, kayaking los humedales (the wetlands), and eating the best shrimp tacos in Baja.

There are several extinct volcanoes in the surrounding area that have created rich soil, making San Quintin a major agricultural community growing berries, grapes, and tomatoes. We passed massive strawberry fields on our way to our campsite at Campo Don Alvaro in La Cochera. This tiny fishing village sits atop dramatic cliffs lined with beautiful beaches on the Pacific ocean and was the perfect spot to camp while we explored the natural beauty of the area. The two restaurants on site serve up some of the best seafood in Baja. Try the shrimp tacos and quesadillas.

Nearby are the wetlands, called los humedales in Spanish, which can be kayaked when tidal conditions allow. Be sure to check the tide tables before going to avoid getting stuck in the mud. Lots of birds call the wetlands home and they are a very unique place to visit in Baja.
